PREPARATION OF ENTRIES

 Art entries need to be matted.  Do not submit entries in frames.  Do not use expensive mats; the entries will be stapled for display.  Schools should submit their work in an art folder or in a carton or wrapped marked with the school's name in ink.  Three-dimensional art pieces (including paper-maché) will not be accepted due to transportation, storage and display constraints.
